2/15/73 in St. Paul: nothing special, honestly. There’s a HoF He’s Gone right up front,a You Ain’t Woman Enough amuse-buche from Mrs. Donna Jean and some adorable harmonies on Here Comes Sunshine, but there’s no big jam–the Phil-led Playing barely makes it to 15 minutes and there’s neither a Dark Star nor an Other One.
But…life is short; listen to ’73.
Just curious – is this title a reference to that old song about Lake Okeechobee? Peace.
Nope: the classic Purple Rain.
Never heard of it.
Never heard of Purple Rain? Prince? Apollonia before she went nuts? MORRIS DAY AND THE MOTHERHUMPING TIME?
Well…..I think there was some Purple Rain blotter at Alpine one year. Oh, wait – wasn’t he Weezie Jefferson’s kid?
